“Tell me, what is it you plan to do
with your one wild and precious life?”
― Mary Oliver

“To love at all is to be vulnerable. Love anything and your heart will be wrung and possibly broken. If you want to make sure of keeping it intact you must give it to no one, not even an animal. Wrap it carefully round with hobbies and little luxuries; avoid all entanglements. Lock it up safe in the casket or coffin of your selfishness. But in that casket, safe, dark, motionless, airless, it will change. It will not be broken; it will become unbreakable, impenetrable, irredeemable. To love is to be vulnerable.”
― C.S. Lewis, The Four Loves

“For where all love is, the speaking is unnecessary”
― Diana Gabaldon, Outlander

“Success is not final, failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts.”
― Winston S. Churchill
